Catedral de Zacatecoluca, Catholic cathedral in Zacatecoluca, El Salvador.

The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Poor stands at 60 meters tall with a Latin cross floor plan and multiple side chapels supported by columns.

Originally constructed as an adobe hermitage in the sixteenth century, the current cathedral building was completed in 1975 after a decade of construction.

Each December 26, the cathedral holds celebrations honoring Our Lady of the Poor, bringing together local communities for religious observances and traditions.

The cathedral maintains its position as the central religious structure of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Zacatecoluca, conducting regular services and ceremonies.

The cathedral's dedication stems from a reported miracle in 1840 when collective prayers helped extinguish a fire in the community.
